Our Phentermine Weight Loss Program Process

At The Gallery Of Cosmetic Surgery, we offer a comprehensive weight loss program that helps you make the most of phentermine for weight loss. You’ll need to attend an initial consultation so the weight loss provider can ensure you are a good candidate for phentermine.  

Once your provider clears you to begin the program, they will prescribe the medication as follows: 

• 15 mg: First Month 
• 30 mg: Second Month 
• 37.5 mg: Third Month & maintenance dosage 

During your phentermine weight program in Bellevue, we provide ongoing support to help you achieve your goals and maintain your results. Because there is little evidence of its long-term effects, phentermine is meant for short-term use, so the weight loss provider can make adjustments to your treatment duration as needed.
